EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Map of the Gulf of Venice, Adriatic Sea" takes us back to the year 1717. Created by Jean-Baptiste Nolin, a renowned cartographer of his time, this map offers a detailed and intricate depiction of the Republic of Venice's coasts in Italy and the peninsula of Istria in Croatia. Part of Nolin's famous atlas "Le Theatre du Monde" this print showcases his exceptional skill in capturing geographical accuracy. The Gulf of Venice is beautifully illustrated with its surrounding territories, allowing viewers to immerse themselves in the rich history and significance of these coastal regions. The map not only serves as an informative tool but also stands as a work of art. Its delicate engravings highlight every contour and feature with precision, revealing Nolin's dedication to both functionality and aesthetics. The attention to detail is evident throughout; from small islands dotting the Adriatic Sea to intricate border designs that enhance its visual appeal. As we gaze upon this historical artifact preserved within a private collection, we are transported back centuries ago when exploration was at its peak. It reminds us how maps were once invaluable resources for sailors navigating treacherous waters and merchants seeking new trade routes. Luisa Ricciarini has captured this remarkable piece through her lens, immortalizing it for generations to come. This photograph allows us to appreciate not only Nolin's craftsmanship but also Ricciarini's talent in preserving cultural heritage through her artwork.
